Iran Update 06-27-09: The Mothers of Iran Vigil, Protestors Silence - A Time to Regroup, Regime Tortures Protestors at Camp Kahrizak

From Tehran via Twitter the voices of the Iranian People, although fewer and further between are still being heard on Twitter. According to several “Twits”, the mothers of victims will gather in Park Leah today – the outcome undetermined. Notices of meetings in the past via Tweeter have proven to be confirmed later in the day – this was, of course, prior to the interruption of internet and telecommunications from within Iran. Additionally, unconfirmed reports are coming through that site, that the regime in housing protestors in the notorious Camp Kahrizak, where they are undergoing torture. The reputation of this particular “camp” is well documented. In 2007, 18 women died from the extreme conditions, while 10 died under torture. The regimes crimes are further detailed here at WFAFI.org an Iranian Women’s Organization. For more on the Camp, and world views Human Rights Organizations document this particular “camp”.
The green balloon protests, have been thwarted by the regime, yesterday the Guardian Council banned balloons.

From Twitter: the Iranian Protestors are regrouping:

it's ok that we didn't have protests yesterday, we r trying 2 think of ways 2 have our voices heard without dying!


Therefore, from this perspective, the silence from Iran, touted by those in the media who prefer to focus on other events, as contained by the administration, is simply on hold until such time as communications between those now fighting for Democracy and Persia, are able to find the means to achieve their ultimate goal. This without the enormous loss of life inflicted upon the protestors by the Hired Guns of the Iranian Regime. Certainly that aid will not come from the administration of the United State, regardless of what the Ayatollah believes, President Obama would refer to the United Nations first, and then offer his condolences to the “freedom fighters” and “strongly condemn” the Iranian Government. The aid will come, however, and it will come from Europe, from a nation that has seen the face of fascism and suffered the oppression of its people, a nation that has stood up so far in response to the Iranian protestors, have no doubt that a nation that is considered the least among us (given the arrogance of certain world powers), will become the greatest in terms of morality.

Lastly, one has to understand the history of Persia, to fully understand the disconnect between the Persian People and their Islamic Leaders. Additionally, when one looks at the religious demographics of Iran, although predominantly Muslim, with several minority religions: Christians and Jews among them. However, a growing number of the Persian youth are subscribing to Zoroastrianism, the oldest religion in Persia. A sense of Persian nationalism is prevalent in a growing number of posts coming (either via twitter, YouTube, citizen tube, or a variety of blogs), and these are the voices of the protestors.

UpDate Iran 062609: Tyrannical Ayatollah Calls for Execution of Protestors - The Smart Bomb Effect - Opinion

The Hardliner Ayatollah Khatami, called upon the people of Iran to execute those who protested against the government - this edict came during Friday services. Khatami, in line with Khomeini, noted that the "rioters" - otherwise known as peaceful protestors against a brutal regime - should be executed and hopes that the Iranian Judiciary sees it his way.

Considering the fact that the militia used in the grotesque attacks on these peaceful marchers this past week, including the use of axes, was all hired Arabs speaks volumes - the regime must fear its own military and police so they must resort to hiring outsiders. How desperate the regime must be - as they have tried and failed to keep Iranian protestors from finding ways to use Twitter - Google has made it clear that Iran's Regime does not own the internet.

Facts to be considered: 70% of the population is under the age of 30; those who are in the majority do not recall the rise to power of the Ayatollah Khomeini and his evil cohorts and, from Twits, have little to no respect and or allegiance to the regime. Calls for Khomeini’s death could be heard from the rooftops during the past week and as the communications are slowing down, one can imagine that the worst of the regime is still on tap, yet, they are sorely outnumbered. The exhortations to those who were murdered while peacefully protesting to stay peaceful are, at this juncture, ludicrous. As one Twitter pointed out, the Iraq/Iran border is very close and the US could aid the protestors - one should not look for help from the U.S. but rather, strongly worded condemnations from this administration.

Perhaps some other nation, one that has a moral compass and cares not one whit what Putin thinks - will "accidentally" drop a "smart bomb" in the vicinity of the current regimes sleeping quarters - Bombs, such as those used in the Iraq wars early stages, cut civilian casualties, which removing the sons of Saddam in an instant. Surely the U.S. is not the only country with such technology?

In the 1940's, the German's were murdering millions of Jews and Catholics and the United States with full knowledge, stood by for several years, until Germany's ally, Japan, knocked off Pearl Harbor. It is a sad historical fact.

There are many evils the nations of the world have had the ability to address, and in the name of "politics and diplomacy" have seen the deaths of millions of innocents. With the images that have already come out of Iran, those in the regime are guilty of the greatest crimes against humanity and should be subjected to the condemnation of the world, and the punishment to fit the crime.

Update Iran 26-06-09: - Iran Returns to Twitter - Friday Prayer Services Broadcast - Khatami Presided over Prayers, not Khomeini.

News is coming back out of Iran via Twitter, the latest developing discussion – confusion regarding the fact that Friday Prayer Services were not televised, but noted by the AP as “broadcast” is significant. The State of Iran, a theocracy, uses the televised prayer services to deliver political-theological messages to the Iranian Citizens and beyond its borders – if using alternate methods and broadcasting inside Iran only - the message in these services has been “censored”. It comes as no surprised therefore, that the AP is Reporting that that Hardliner, Khatami issued what amounted to a religious “command” to abuse the protestors.
Khomeini Stock has appeared to fall - The Middle East - The Arabian Middle East News is reporting that the clerics are seeking an alternative to a “Supreme Leader.
The question now is will the Iranian people continue to bow to this theological tyranny. An article in the Italian Political Magazine
Limes written today outlines the fact that the Iranian Constitution is at odds with the concept of a Supreme Leader:

Translated via Google:


The essential question, however in a Republic, and self-define Islam is another. And that is the guide of the revolution is the most important religious figure in the country and Shiite Islam? The answer, short and indisputable is: No.

The Defiance is not dampened, nor the will of the people for freedom: Tweets from Iran:

WE ARE SHEDDING BLOOD NOT FOR MOUSAVI BUT TO BE FREE FROM ISLAMIC REPUBLIC
